Walls of Time - The Petersens (LIVE)

Plot twist... The Petersens covered two bluegrass songs in a row! Emmett sounds so great on "Walls of Time" and it was a fun one to throw in the shows before we switched to Christmas. Julianne was overseas as part of her last year of college, when we filmed this video.

You can't get much more bluegrass than this, a song by the father of bluegrass, Bill Monroe, who created the genre. One night in the 1960s, Bill and his band were aboard their old bus "The Bluegrass Breakdown," when it lived up to its name somewhere in the middle of Kentucky. Watching the sun rise over the mountains and inspired by what he called the ancient tones (the whispering in nature), Bill and his young bandmate Peter Rowan came up with this song. Enjoy!

►LYRICS - Walls of Time
The wind is blowing across the mountains
And out on the valley way below
It sweeps the grave of my darlin'
When I die that's where I want to go

Lord, send the angels for my darlin'
And take her to that home on high
I'll wait my time out here on earth, love
And come to you when I die

I hear a voice out in the darkness
It moans an' whispers through the pines
An' I know it's my sweetheart a-callin'
I hear her through the walls of time

Lord, send the angels for my darlin'
And take her to that home on high
I'll wait my time out here on earth, love
And come to you when I die

Our names are carved upon the tombstone
And I promised you before you died
That our love will bloom forever, darlin'
When we rest side by side

Lord, send the angels for my darlin'
And take her to that home on high
I'll wait my time out here on earth, love
And come to you when I die
And come to you when I die
